Addition for howto install for linux #40

Under ubuntu linux with the default installation of postgresql, simply doing 
install.packages('RPostgreSQL')in R fails with unspecified errors. 

The problem is solved by installing the postgres server dev package before 
retrying the install.packages command in R.  eg sudo apt-get install 
postgresql-server-dev-8.4 for postgresql version 8.4.

And for postgresql 9.3?
I have install postgresql 9.3 and devel versión but I obtain an error in 
compilation of rpostgresql:

...
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : 
  unable to load shared object '/usr/lib64/R/library/RPostgreSQL/libs/RPostgreSQL.so':
